Personalized Golf Gifts for Dad: A Father’s Day Gift Guide
This Father's Day figures to feel more personal than years prior, coming off of travel restrictions, health scares, and the general volatility of the past 5 years. If you are lucky enough to celebrate June 19th in person, you may want to consider a personalized golf gift for dad that reminds him of the things that bring you both together.
And for many Fathers and children, that thing is golf. Whether it’s playing together or enjoying the game as spectators, this year’s Father’s Day guide focuses on personalized gifts that will remind him just how much he's loved every time he uses it.
Golf Course Classics
If your dad loves nothing more than to get out on the course and unwind, these personalized golf gifts will be the perfect combination of thoughtfulness and utility.
Personalized Golf Club Finders
The classic gift for any father who’s been known to leave a club behind on a hole (pretty much all golfers have done this), these personalized golf club finders will help ensure the safe return of any wayward stick. Made in the USA, they can be engraved with his name or initials to give a custom feel to every tool in his bag. Simply pop them into the butt of the grip, and voila: clubs that look like a million bucks.
Not only will these Club Finders give dad’s clubs some trackable pop, their deep engraving and lightweight design won’t wear off and won’t change his swing (no matter how much an adjustment is warranted).
Personalized golf club finders add utility and style to his weapons of choice.
Personalized Golf Socks
As cliche as it sounds, a pair of socks can make a fun Father’s Day gift if the message hits close to home. If your dad is a superstitious guy, these custom printed golf socks will not only get plenty of use out on the course, but dad's game will benefit from the personalized vibes of his new lucky socks.
Combine them with a dozen customized golf balls and your Father’s Day gifting season is a wrap. Now you can focus on tee times and homeward bound logistics.
Personalized Divot Repair Tool
Most dads pride themselves on being resourceful, and wouldn’t consider themselves in need of fancy ball markers and divot tools when loose change and a humble golf tee will do the trick. But that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t appreciate a level up from his progeny. This Father's Day, class up his bag with a personalized divot tool and hat clip golf ball marker set. Every golfer needs them, and even if he already has one, we can guarantee they won’t be favored over this handsome pair. These personalized beauties will set dad’s game apart with an engraved divot repair tool, magnetic hat clip, and three interchangeable magnetic ball markers.
These tools won’t necessarily help his handicap get any better, but he’ll definitely look more professional out on the green. Plus, every time he reaches for them, he’ll know somewhere out there is a kid who loves him, and that’ll pick him up no matter how bad a round he’s having.
Choose your finish: Silver, Gold, or White
The Trio
If your dad is anything like me, his divot repair tool is in good shape, but he's lost the ball marker ages ago, whether the bottom of his bag, the trunk of his car, or the crevasse of a seat cushion. This year, replenish his supply with this trio of personalized magnetic golf ball markers.
Custom Leather Scorecard Holder
If there's one thing I know about your dad, it's that he's a dad. And what dad wouldn't love a monogrammed leather scorecard holder to keep his score in the classiest of ways? This gem is made in Louisville, Kentucky by Bluegrass Fairway, is an especially great gift for dads that like to loop it or who eagerly presume scorekeeping duties. Just imagine the satisfaction he'll feel when he pulls one of these handcrafted beauties to mark another textbook birdie bogey.

Beyond looking like a real pro with a pocket-sized leather folio, a scorecard holder will make sure his cards stay pristine throughout the round. So just in case he hits a hole-in-one, or plays the round of his life and needs to preserve the artifact in a golf scorecard display frame, it will already be in great shape for safekeeping.
Caddy Organizer
Dads are suckers for a choice bit of organizational technology. It’s ingrained from years of having a limited amount of personal time, and the strong urge to not waste one moment from a lack of preparedness. This caddie case from Platypus Golf was designed with precisely that in mind, and it can be monogrammed with his initials.

From an innovative “hinging glove shaper” that prevents his glove from shrinking and drying out to loops and magnets that keep tees, divot tools and ball marks at the ready, this case will get dad from the parking lot to the pro shop with ample time to stock the cooler and ask about the course record.
Personalized Golf Gifts for Dad - 19th Hole Version
Some dads find their peace on the field of play, others achieve calm when they return home to enjoy their first sip of a favorite golf drink. This Father's Day, make sure your dad finds his golf nirvana right in the comfort of his own home.
Golf Decanter Set
This stunning decanter and glass combo will really set dad's home bar apart from the field. A 100ml decanter and old fashioned glasses are dimpled to resemble golf balls, and perched atop his own personal patch of turf, this Golf Ball Decanter and Rocks Glass Set will really make any 19th Hole the perfect oasis from the stresses of the world.
Anything tastes better when served out of a golf themed decanter…
Personalized Golf Coasters
A good bar starts with a good set of coasters, and keeps those coffee and side tables free of rings to boot. These handsome bamboo coasters can be engraved with dad's name, his favorite course, or if he has one, the name of his home bar (lucky dad). Lightweight and durable, the golf score coasters will have his buddies fighting for 'eagle' and everyone happy to have ring-stain-free surfaces in the house.
Bar Sign
How will dad know he's even at the 19th hole without a sign telling him that he made it? Really step up your dad's home bar game with a custom metal 19th Hole sign that will make sure everyone who comes over is immediately aware that they have entered an oasis of golf and booze.
Custom Copper Mule Cups
In 2022, it's not officially a bar unless there are some copper cups on the shelf. Not only will these gleaming copper mule cups add some visual flair to dad's 19th hole bar, his monogram on each cup will be a reminder to him about the thought you put into his Father's Day gift.
Beyond the standard Moscow Mule, these cups will enhance a range of chilled beverages from the Dark and Stormy, to a classic Mint Julep (just don't tell a Kentuckian that you served it in copper instead of silver/pewter).
Personalized glassware
Perfect for the dad who's just started curating a liquor collection for his home bar, this personalized set of beer mugs will act as a foundational piece of decor. Not only will they add the thoughtful, timeless class reserved for things that have a monogram engraved on them, but the golf ball relief in the bottom is a subtle detail that will bring a bit of his favorite sport into his new favorite space.
Not Specifically Personal, But Worthy of Inclusion
Before we close it out, we did want to add a couple additional gift options for golfing dads. First up is a membership to The Golfer’s Journal, an online community with a quarterly print magazine featuring some of the best golf writing you can find. Members also get access to a private online community where they can find playing partners, join regional chapters, and participate in events and other exclusive programming. This is a perfect gift for the golf-obsessed dad, especially if he’s looking to widen his network of playing partners and options.
